Getting makeup done at Nars counter- how much tip for artist is appropriate?

i live near NYCGetting makeup done at Nars counter- how much tip for artist is appropriate?Depends on how much the makeover is...I would stick to 15-20% of the total cost. If its free, then I would tip $10-15. You don't have to tip, but if the makeover is free, then the expectation is that you puchase at least one makeup item.Getting makeup done at Nars counter- how much tip for artist is appropriate?NO!!! YOU DON'T TIP THEM!!! you buy them makeup... the sale goes for them... and it's probably commission or i don't know... but DON'T TIP THEM!!! you are buying makeup... gosh i don't know how much i can stress this to you... i'm not being rude/cheap... but you don't tip the people...You shouldn't be tipping the makeup artist, they are already making $14 an hour! If they do your whole face, it's customary that you're not just doing it to buy a lip liner. You should plan to BUY a couple things three at least. Even if they charge a fee for a makeover, Don't tip them! They get commision, I don't care if it's NYC, everyone wants a friggin tip these days. If they are collecting tips, alert management because it just wrongDepends on how many products you buy from all the makeup she uses on you. If you only buy the lip gloss give her ten bucks. If you buy the foundation with the concealer, liquid eyeliner, and bronzer then tip her more.
